panied ny another gentleman, was
driving into Lebanon from Sodaville

pole to the ground. This frightened

hold them in, broke one OF the bride
bits giving the horses their freedom
In another instant both men were
hurled from the buggy and the team
came flying into town and in turning
to go down the county road, off Main
street, one of the horses turned n double
saomersault, and every one thought the
-a+3imal was seriously hurt. Fortunate
ly no harm befcl either the occupants
of the buggy or the team Neither was

Lord SaIIsbury,s Latest.

LONDON. April 2O.-Lord Salisbury, in
an address. said that the present Irish
crimes bill would not compare in stringency
with GladstOne's bill of 1881. Under the
latter people were imprisoned without trial.
The suppression of crime in Ireland did
not mean the suppression of liberty. Mr..
Gladstone will find that on the Liberal side
Of the house the spirit of the Englishmen
has not quite disappeared, and leader to
be followed must be leader who can be
trusted to stand by his opinions. Gladstone
thinks that ParnelFs position is perfectly
reasonable and honorable. and that nobody
ought to ask him to clear himself If Par
nell and his associates were men absolutely
free from suspicion in this matter 1 would
understand that reasoning. But they be-
Iong to a party Of which large wing has
worked by murder and been largely SUD.
ported by the contributions of others who
openly advocate political assassination.
ParnelFS trusted friends have mixed on
terms of intimacy with those whose advo-
cacy of assassination is we'll known and
the language of Parnell and his friends in
speaking of the fearful crimes committed is
not above reproach. being marked by indif-
terence to even tolerance of murder When
such grave case of presumption exists. it
is not open for him to take refuge in a mere
denial. or think he can dispose of accusa-
tions by the liberal use of the wide and en-
ergetic vocabulary which his followers used

Justice.

justice.
New YORK, April 2O.-Judge Donohue,
in supreme court chambers to-day, listened
to arguments relative to the trouble and
complications of the American Opera
company the question being as to the con-
tinuance or dissolution of the Injunction
granted last week restraining W. W. Bad
ger, counsel tor some of the chorus girls,
from proceeding with their suits in the city
court which are on the calendar for
Friday. Nj. ii. Kinsley, of the firm of
Eaton & Lewis. and holder of eighty
shares in the company, contended that
the injunctions should be continued,
as a receiver had been appointed and the
suits and the claims would be determined
upon his final accounting. In opposition it
was argued by Col. Badger that the chorus
girls had waited long enough; they were
entitled to a settlement, and could not
afford to delay. Judge Donohue said:
This court is not going to erect wall to
prevent the poor chorus girls, who are in
need OF and want money, from having
their rights determined Immediately. The
courts are for justice and not for injustice -
In taking the papers he intimated that he
would dissolve the injunction, and permit
the cases to be tried Friday.

THE FISHERY QUESTION.
Lord Salisbury Makes an Offer
Looking to a Satisfactory Settle.

10 SGttfCs
memt.
iLoNDoN, April Cot is officially stated
that Lord Salisbury, in dispatch sent to
Washington on March "a. said that the
British government, understanding the
action of the United States in denouncing
the fishery articles of the treaty of Wash
ington to be in great degree the result of
disappointment at being called upon to pay
81, 100, 600 under the Halifax fisheries
award, offers to revert to the old condition
of affairs without pecuniary indemnity,
which offer, it trusts, will commend. itself
to the American government as being based
upon that spirit of good will and generosity
which should animate two great and kind
red nations, whose common origin. lam
guage and institutions constitute so many
bonds Of amity and concord.
WASHINGTON COMMENT.
WASHINGTON, April 2O.-The subject
matter of the above dispatch is not exactly
news i'll diplomatic circles, the same propo-
sition having emanated from a Canadian
source some time ago. Well informed per-
sons incline to the opinion that the error re-
ferred to in the cablegram has been thus in
directly and unof1icially made as feeleI to
ascertain in advance of an actual tender
how such proposition would be received
by the American people. AS the represent
tativeS of the United States on the commits
sion that negotiated the treaty of Washing
ton, and the Halifax commission, which
fixed the award made to England for the
use of the Canadian in-shore fisheries, eX-
pressly denied that the privilege accorded
to United States vessels fishing in Canadian
waters was more valuable than the conces-
sion made to Canadian fisheries of like
privilege in waters of the United States
and free entry of their fish, it is
SAFE TO ASSUME
that the department of state never enter
tanned the idea of renewing the treaty of
Washington with the understanding that a
cash indemnity was again to be paid to
Great Britain for the right to enjoy the in
shore fisheries of Canada. Secretary Bay
ard to-day said that he was glad to note the
increasing interest manifested in the SUBJ
ject. He felt that the people of the coun-
try outside of Massachusetts had never
realized its Importance or appreciated the
gravity OF the alternative left to the admin
lStration, declaration of intercourse,
II it failed to effect a peaceable adjustment
of the differences between the United
States and Great Britain respecting the
construction Of the treaty rights of our
fishermen. There were involved, he said.
the interests of San Francisco in maintain.
ing her present source of coal supply from
British Columbia and the great Chicago
business connections with Canada and of
The vast trade that GIBBS and flows across
the 5000 miles of our Northern boundary.
The negotiations with Great Britain on the
subject are progressing, and the secretary
hopes that they will result in harmonious
and satisfactory understanding between that
country and the United States.

Biggar HiIiSue,

LONDON, April 2O.-Mr. Biggar, will sue
the Times for libel, and make that papers

series of which the Parnell letter was the
eliminating part, the basis of the action.
CSir William Vernon. Harcourt, in
speech at East London tonight, Endorsed
Earl Spencers recent assertion that there
was no evidence which showed that the
Parnellites ever associated with criminals.
In view of ParnelPs denial of the accusa-
tons made against him it remained for his
accusers to substantiate their charges. The
PanelliteS are indignant at Lord Salisbury's
speech at Albert palace, and there is some
talk of bringing his remarks under notice
OF the commons 1t is reported that as
result of the reiteration of its charge by
the Times. an effort will be made to bring
the editor and publisher before the COM
mons. and make them prove. if they can,

LONDON, April 20.-Gladstone writes:
l attach a very high value and Importance
TO the manifestations, now incessant, of
America as well as colonial sympathy with
the Irish people in the crisis created by the
cauSeleSS, insulting and insdiouS bill at pres
ent before parliament. Apart from particu-
lar and more or less formal acknowledge
ments, am not of the opinion that it would
be proper or eXpedient for me to take it upon
myself TO address any general communica-
ton 10 America on this subject, which, how
ever, noticed and may again notice in par
lament. Still, am very anxious the people
of this country should have the means of
understanding how much beyond the range
of any sectional feeling, and how truly ma
tional the movement in the United States has
become; and in this view l would recon-
mend that endeavor be made to present
some estimate of the aggregate number OF
persons by which the recent meetings in
America were attended; likewise, especially
an estimate of the number of governors,
mayors, senators, representatives clergy
men and other officials or highly responsible
persons by whom such meetings were count
enanced or supported.
